This yatra, which aims to unite India, is on its 83rd day through Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh on Thursday. Last week, Rahul walked along with his sister, party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and her husband Robert Vadra. This padayatra, which started on September 7, has so far covered 36 districts in 7 states. Another 1209 kms to travel.
Bharat Jodo Yatra is an ongoing mass movement started by the Indian National Congress. Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, is orchestrating the movement by mobilizing the party cadre and general public into walking by foot from Kanyakumari, the southern tip of the peninsula, to the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir, spanning 3,570 kilometers over 150 days.
The Congress said that they started this movement to unite the country against the alleged “divisive politics” of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led central government in New Delhi. Launched by Gandhi and Tamil Nadu chief minister M. K. Stalin on September 7, 2022, its main objective is to fight against the politics of “fear, bigotry and prejudice” and the economics of livelihood destruction, increasing unemployment, and growing inequalities.
The Yatra was launched by Rahul Gandhi and Tamil Nadu chief minister M. K. Stalin on September 7, 2022.
